I need to fill a textbox with a date that, based on the current day, is 2 months back - PLUS I need it to reflect the first day of the month so - I've got : Dim dNow As DateTime = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString Dim NewDate As DateTime NewDate = dNow.AddMonths(-2) How do I make it so that the day portion of NewDate is always 1?

Something like: Dim NewDate As DateTime = DateTime.Now.AddMonths(-2) NewDate = New DateTime(NewDate.Year, NewDate.Month, 1) Not 100% certain of the syntax, as I never go anywhere near VB.NET... -- Mark Rae ASP.NET MVP http://www.markrae.net
Seth: Try with this: Dim dNow As DateTime = DateTime.Now Dim NewDate As DateTime NewDate = dNow.AddMonths(-2) NewDate = NewDate.AddDays((NewDate.Day - 1) * -1) Gustavo A.
